Subject: Jamison drive for JD 7000 corn planters


Southeast WI		I see a few years ago there were some posts on retrofitting planters with the Jamison system to get rid of the wheel chains, clutch and other inherent issues with the stock planter. So those of you that did this a few years ago - any regrets/planting issues? Looks like a newer planter isnt in the works for a few years here and it would be nice to eliminate drive chain problems with all the notill we do.

south central kansas		I did my 7000 12 row front fold with fertilizer 3-5 years ago Im not sure when. I love it, would recomend it for sure. It stops planting quicker when you lift to turn so you don't have as much loss or need to stop. No chains to worry about and you can turn the planter by hand to prime fert or see if all rows are planting. Have not had to touch it since I put it on.

How many drive wheels are you running? And do you have any picks of how you have the fertilizer drive set up? TIA

Sweet!!! Are those aftermarket seed hoppers? If so who's? Or did you paint the fiberglass ones? Thanks again! Might touch base at a later date for more info on the fertilizer drive.

Humeston, IA

I've had a set since 2004 and love them.  Jamison is great to work with.  I've modified mine to allow for two separate transmissions.  Now, they are back up's for hydraulic drive system I've attempted to add.  Very good money invested for an "experienced" planter like a 7000.
